| Here is my list of progressive music faves for the year 1971. My choice is the excellent and ground-breaking debut Passport album "Doldinger". Pick your favourite! |

| It has to be 'Tarkus' - just over Wyatt's last Soft Machine album. |

Very nice, Doug, various I love here, but I can't not vote for Van der Graaf Generator's Pawn Hearts, which I think to be an incredible album. If that weren't here, then I would have voted for Hawkwind's In Search Of Space. Aqualung is also awesome, I like Terje Rypdal and Collage very much, Passpprt/Doldinger Colloseum Live, The Yes Album. Soft Machine's Fourth.... |

I'm with you completely.... ...apart from the fact that Colosseum Live literally drops my jaw... frankly, there's an embarrassment of riches in this poll..  ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson |

For several decades of love it's undoubtly Pawn Hearts, But if I'm only counting the last five or six years, I think my stongest relation is to the two first albums listed here (voted for Terje): Terje Rypdal-Terje Rypdal Soft Machine-Fourth Van der Graaf Generator-Pawn Hearts Jethro Tull-Aqualung Le Orme-Collage Passport-Doldinger Love all of them though, and they're all perfect to my ears. |

With the absence of my all time favourite album i.e 'Meddle' my vote goes to 'The Yes Album'. ------------- "Christ, where would rock & roll be without feedback?" - D. Gimour |

Pawn Hearts. Buttery is not normally a word used to describe pants. ------------- ---------- i'm shopping for a new oil-cured sinus bag that's a happy bag of lettuce this car smells like cartilage nothing beats a good video about fractions |

Some bangers on this list. Yes album is the choice by a razor thin margin over The Inner Mounting Flame. ELP and Jethro Tull are not far behind the Mahavisnu Orchestra. Pawn Hearts is really good too. |

Aqualung, but The Yes Album is at the same level. I could ever have voted for Pilgrimage. ------------- I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution |

I actually didn't notice that it was in the poll. It's one of my "comfort-prog" go-to albums. |
